Merlot

2008 Merlot
Our Unfiltered 2008 Barlow Merlot has a deep, concentrated violet-purple color with aromas of rich raspberry, black cherry with an essence of sweet French vanilla. The palate is highly concentrated with deep and generous flavors of ripe currants, blueberries and Bing cherries. The tannins are soft and luxurious and are a great counterpart to the sweet flavors of toasty oak.

2007 Merlot

This 100% Merlot is rich and ripe with wonderful expressions of blue berries and dark fruits. The 2007 displays a soft velvety texture with succulent flavors of plum, French vanilla and spice. This Merlot is a perfect accompaniment to barbecued chicken, pot roast or mushroom risotto.
